Fraud to receive Sadaqah


476

Q: I am an old man who has suffered paralysis since childhood, and I am also poor. A benevolent man (May Allah reward him) gives each poor person 100 SR and takes a copy of their ID cards. I take copies of some people's ID cards then go to that benevolent man and take money from him through these ID cards. It should be noted that those people give me their ID cards willingly. A brother told me that it is not permissible for me to do so. Is it permissible for me to do so or not? I appreciate your advice!


A: This is not permissible. You should only take the charity due to your own ID card. (Part No. 23; Page No. 466) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
